[Intro]
Yo
Lulou
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

[Verse 1]
Ever since I'm young, I'm tryna get it right
Every year, I'm working toward a goal
Don't sleep 'til we see the daylight
Living big, going up on the rope

[Pre-Chorus]
I like seeing all the bright lights
Keep it up, pour it up for the night
Two times, I'ma get it two times
Double up, run it back on my mind

[Chorus]
This is the life, life, life, this is the life, life, life
This is the life, life, life, this is the life, life, life (This is the life)
This is the life, life, life, this is the life, life, life (This is the life)
This is the life, life, life, this is the life (This is the life)

[Post-Chorus]
Give it up for the kids, eating good, getting lit
Living life, feeling rich, oh, I, oh, I, yeah, this is the life
We the best in the biz, breaking off, betting chips
Living life, feeling rich, oh, I, oh, I, yeah

[Verse 2]
Level up, meet me court side
Tricking out, whipping hard in the coupe
I'ma go, gotta board a flight
Other time, there's a show I gotta do

[Pre-Chorus]
No stress, baby, you can find us
Getting down on a beach in Dubai
Pool side, sipping on a Mai Tai
Double up, run it back on my mind

[Chorus]
This is the life, life, life, this is the life, life, life
This is the life, life, life, this is the life, life, life (This is the life)
This is the life, life, life, this is the life, life, life (This is the life)
This is the life, life, life, this is the life (This is the life)

[Post-Chorus]
Give it up for the kids, eating good, getting lit
Living life, feeling rich, oh, I, oh, I, this is the life
We the best in the biz, breaking off, betting chips
Living life, feeling rich, oh, I, oh, I, yeah

[Rap Section - Unknown Artist]

[Bridge]
No stress, baby, you can find us
Getting down on a beach in Dubai
Pool side, sipping on a Mai Tai
Double up, up, up, up...
(This is the life!)

[Chorus]
This is the life, life, life, this is the life, life, life (This is the life)
This is the life, life, life, this is the life, life, life
This is the life, life, life, this is the life, life, life (This is the life)
This is the life, life, life, this is the life

[Post-Chorus]
Give it up for the kids, eating good, getting lit
Living life, feeling rich, oh, I, oh, I, this is the life
We the best in the biz, breaking off, betting chips
Living life, feeling rich, oh, I, oh, I, yeah

Tinashe

Tinashe Jorgenson Kachingwe, known mononymously as Tinashe, is an American singer-songwriter, actress, dancer, and former model born in Lexington, Kentucky and raised in Los Angeles, California.

Born on February 6, 1993, her rise to fame began with her acting on shows such as Two and a Half Men. Initially making her debut in the music industry via the short-lived girl group The Stunners—which also featured Hayley Kiyoko—she garnered attention from online music blogs with her 2012 mixtape, In Case We Die. Signing with RCA Records shortly after, she released two further mixtapes later that year and in 2013: Reverie and Black Water respectively. “2 On” was released in January 2014 as the lead single from her debut album, Aquarius, and remains her biggest solo single to date. Released in October that year, the album was praised by critics for its merging of old-school R&B sounds and fresh 2010s trends. The follow-up was subjected to much-criticised although “Player” was billed as the collection’s lead single as early as October 2015, songs released from the project failed to reach the label’s expectations, resulting in the release of an album’s worth of outtakes from the album, Nightride, in November 2016. Joyride was finally released on April 13: it features the singles “No Drama”, “Faded Love” and “Me So Bad”.

On February 18, 2019, Tinashe parted ways with her longtime record label RCA. By November that year, she inked a new management deal with Roc Nation and self-released Songs for You, her fourth studio album.
